mimi has been trying to get everyone on the bacon chocolate bandwagon.

as a vegetarian, i may not be able to join in the taste testing (i’m waiting for the fakin’ bacon version), but i can certainly join in the fun of documenting the taste testing. our friends shannon and mel were the guinea pigs. photos after the jump:
